Dr. Zipporah P. Duguryil, the Centre director welcomed all members present and gave a brief overview about T_CEIPEC.

The director concluded her remark by informing all in attendance that the purpose of the Baseline survey was to enable T_CEIPEC embark on research based interventions in line with the Centre's identified national challenges as well as closing the gap between researchers and the users of research-output, by stimulating and strengthening the quadruple-helix relationship to increase the likelihood of research being used by institutions and industries.
